Read our new interview with behavioral neuroscientist Leanna Kalinowski, MPH, Civic Science Fellow at Neuromatch. Leanna is conducting a global survey—the first of its kind—to explore civic science behaviors, attitudes, and motivations among scientists across all career levels and research disciplines. Her aim is to use the findings to develop training programs for early-career researchers on targeted methods of civic science engagement. Learn about her work and take her survey! #civicscience #research #neurosociety #neuroscience
